It is almost always improper for such listings (we call them deeplinks) to be suggested by submitters. Editors can list deeplinks at their own discretion.

We do not have to explain anything about any of the sites we list. That is not the purpose of this forum. If they are listed then apparently an editor thought it a resource. If you suspect abuse then please report it using our public abuse report system. Thanks.

Well, I think you were clearly told the policy: we do not welcome the submission of deep links.

Editor app vs Submissions

There is a difference between submitting and editing. We ask submitters not to do it - it is purely at the discretion of the editors.

if you are looking to apply to become an editor of a category, and are thinking about using deeplinks, then you need to read the ODP guidelines very very carefully about what sort of deeplinks are considered to be ok.

The answers you have been given up to this point were assuming that you were a submitters, not a prospective editor.

If you are struggling to find too many site examples for that category, then you might want to reconsider whether this is the best category for you - how about finding one that has a lot more potential for building and that you are familiar with?
